      UK film critic and film historian.
    • Quotes
      There was never anything quite like movie stars before, except Gods and Goddesses; and even Gods and Goddesses lacked the special fascination of the stars, the piquant dual existence of the vulnerable, mortal and often tortured human being which cowers within the splendid and immortal presence.
